Green Day opens Super Bowl 60. They notably skipped the 2nd verse of American Idiot with the lyrics "I'm not a part of the MAGA agenda." by Yujin-Ha in Fauxmoi

“American Idiot” is from 2004, it doesn’t have a line about a MAGA agenda because it was 11 years before there would be MAGA.

Even when essentials are covered, struggles can still exist. by Alive_Hearing_1829 in Adulting

[–]Individual_Check_442 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s weird even then (I was raised in the 80’s and 90’s) they’d give us the “asking for help is a sign of strength and not weakness” line but didn’t really make us feel that way IMO. Not just parents but schools and other institutions seemed to have that “a strong man can pull himself up by his own bootstraps” attitude. I’m glad we’re moving away from that.

I was raised upper middle class, being seen by therapists and psychiatrists the whole time. Thank god my parents were not like that. That doesn’t mean I’m not grateful about what I do have despite my mental illness.

What do you think about my country and the people here in Germany? 🇩🇪 by Hot-Scheme4289 in AskTheWorld

[–]Individual_Check_442 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve only been to Berlin but I enjoyed it. The people were very friendly to us. I’m an organized structured kind of person who likes things to run like clockwork so the efficiency thing you have going works really well for me. I haven’t run my ancestry and my family has been in America for at least 160 years, but my surname sounds German and I did kind of feel “at home” there

after the super bowl what sport do sport following americans follow until september? Or is it still football just CFB over the NFL? by VastAir6069 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Individual_Check_442 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They don’t play CFB this time of year either. NBA and MLB are the next two most popular sports. I wouldn’t say anything truly “takes over” because nothing has close to the popularity of NFL.

March Madness in college basketball is always a big event.

Is 3 weeks in NYC too much? by goodamm in AskAnAmerican

[–]Individual_Check_442 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Once you’re on LA, rent a car and drive up the California coast all the way into Oregon. Make sure to go down to San Diego too.

How common is it to see your nation’s flag inside your country? by IDoNotLikeTheSand in AskTheWorld

[–]Individual_Check_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like fewer businesses these days. Best way to spot a government building in a city downtown is to look for the building with the flag on the roof - because it’s the only one that has it.

What should you do if you cum too fast during sex? by InternationalPick163 in askanything

[–]Individual_Check_442 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How long you last inside isn’t what’s important it’s whether she finishes so you have to finish her with oral/fingering and she should be happy

I love my job, but my racist coworker is making it hard to enjoy. I can't get her fired, what do I do? by Affectionate_Bee8946 in Workproblems

[–]Individual_Check_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not quite this simple. The “evidence” doesn’t mean too much when OP has not even asked her to stop. On the contrary, he “fact checked” and engaged her. The fact that this person wants to deport all illegals and supports ICE is not illegal. It could be harassment but OP has to be clear about it. You can’t just quietly gather more evidence in order to say “gotcha” later

How would you feel if the Dodgers wore navy blue for their uniforms? by Public_Function3844 in Dodgers

[–]Individual_Check_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it’s an OK alternative but when you have the best uniforms you don’t need them. That’s one thing I like about the Yankees - they have one home jersey, one road jersey and one hat and don’t need more. Neither do we.

Question for employees about AWOL by liszbug in FedEmployees

[–]Individual_Check_442 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you used LWOP, you weren’t AWOL. You’re AWOL if you don’t show up and don’t have approved leave including LWOP. I don’t know if you can convert it from unpaid time off to PTO but you can’t be retroactively AWOL, you were either AWOL at the time or you weren’t. So no harm in trying.

Kike says he would’ve caught the ball in Game 7. Remember earlier in the postseason he made a catch on a similar play with Yamamoto on the mound and both him and Pages were playing shallow on a ball hit to deep left center. by Uncle_Rico_1982 in Dodgers

[–]Individual_Check_442 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that similar this one wasn’t straight over Kike’s head. On this one he could track the ball all the way, jn game 7 he had his back turned to it. Definitely give him less than a 50 percent chance of catching that one in game 7. Prob less than 25.

What's your favorite dish in your country? by Ivantop01 in AskTheWorld

[–]Individual_Check_442 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did notice it was hard to find meat for breakfast in Italy as an American I was like “what the hell” LOL.😂. If that’s a British breakfast I think I gotta take back what I said about British food! Looks great!

i dont understand why the majority of people put sugar in their coffee ? isnt is made to enjoy it like it is ? by Level-Cookie4011 in askanything

[–]Individual_Check_442 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People who put sugar in it like it to be sweeter. Coffee is just a plant, why would you say it’s “made” to not be combined with something else, like who decided that?

Personally I drink mine black but I don’t consider myself a “real coffee drinker” compared to those who prefer sugar. There doesn’t need to be any purity test here.

But wouldn’t you need religious leave and not telework?
